Posts like that scare me regarding the newcomer.


BE WELL
I think posts like yours can scare newcomers into thinking they have some sort of "disease". They don't, they just pickled their brains too much for too long, and they can become "normal" again and don't have to follow dogma from 1935 unless they want to. Doesn't mean they can safely drink again, but that's not alcoholic according to what everyone else uses as a definition - we can't redefine words as we wish and then judge whether or not people fit or don't fit.

And please don't give me a snide lecture about modern medicine and science, it's not correct and it doesn't help anyone.
